The Sun have advanced to the second round of the playoffs following a sweep of the Fever, ending Caitlin Clark’s rookie season en route to what they hope will be a title.
Carrington, who gained some notoriety this season after mocking the Fever rookie earlier this year and poking her in the eye in Game 1 on Sunday, had her photo taken by a fan while she bent over with her hands on her buttocks.

“I’m crying why she spreading it open,” a user wrote in the comment.
“Is she advertising ? Good grief,” someone asked.
Email Sent To Dijonai Carrington Sparks Swift Response From The WNBA
Dijonai Carrington remains in the spotlight in the wake of Wednesday’s win over Indiana.
The Connecticut star shared a threatening email she received from someone, taking to her Instagram Story to reveal as much. The message contained a racial slur and a threat of sexual assault.
The WNBA wasted no time in responding.
“While we welcome a growing fan base, the WNBA will not tolerate racist, derogatory, or threatening comments made about players, teams and anyone affiliated with the league,” the league said in a statement. “League security is actively monitoring threat-related activity and will work directly with teams and arenas to take appropriate measures, to include involving law enforcement, as necessary.”
Carrington didn’t speak about the shared email after the Sun’s win, but her teammate Alyssa Thomas blamed Fever fans for most of the abuse players have received this season.
“It’s been a lot of nonsense. I think in my 11-year career, I’ve never experienced the racial comments (like I have) from the Indiana Fever fan base,” she said. “I’ve never been called the things that I’ve been called on social media, and there’s no place for it. Basketball is headed in a great direction. But we don’t want fans that are going to degrade us and call us racial names.”
